KCC
was formed in 2004 as a non-partisan and
non-denominational Christian organization
to bring an end to the sufferings endured
by our brothers and sisters in North Korea,
as well as China and other parts of the
world, through non-violent means. By grace
of God more than three thousand Korean pastors,
representing millions of Korean Christians,
have joined KCC.
The
main purpose of KCC is to pray for and aid
the people of North Korea, and to tell the
world about the sufferings endured by our
blood related North Koreans, who through
no fault of their own, suffer from the repressive
North Korean regime, as well as bring awareness
to the local communities the types of brutality,
torture, slavery, as well as other non-humane
conditions, which are part of their daily
lives.
On
September 27, 2004, KCC hosted its first
Inaugural Conference at the LAX Hilton Hotel
which was attended by more than Two Thousand
KCC pastors from all parts of the United
States. In his Keynote Speech by US Senator
Sam Brownback, Mr. Brownback announced that
on this very same day, the North Korean
Human Rights Act of 2004 was unanimously
passed by both the US Congress and the Senate. Since
February of 2005, regional churches of the
KCC located throughout the United States
and the world have been hosting Prayer
Vigils.
The Los Angeles Wailing Prayer Vigil was attended
by 12,000, while the Seoul Wailing Prayer
Vigil was attended by 20,000 attendees,
and are considered to be the largest gatherings
for North Korean Human Rights.
KCC
currently has representative strongholds
in every state and major city in the United
States, and all major provinces of South
Korea as well as South America, Guatemala,
Brazil, Australia, Europe, New Zealand and
Japan. KCC will continue with the
Prayer Vigils to additional regions throughout
the United States and the world.
KCC
will continue to speak even louder, pray
even harder on behalf of our fellow brothers
and sisters who cannot speak out on their
own, wherever they may be, and will not
leave or rest until Freedom and Protection
is finally won for all. With God on our
side, we will not fail.
